Since the release of the iPhone 13 device last September, those who have purchased have been enjoying the benefits that the powerful device provides, which appears to be a huge leap from its predecessors.
Despite the fact that the said latest iPhone model resembles the iPhone 12, it is worth noting that the battery life and camera system are the most noteworthy improvements on the 13 Pro. With a high refresh rate screen, the 13 Pro provides a third key enhancement.
The mentioned upgrade shows that improving the battery, camera, and screen is an expected annual change for the Cupertino-based tech giant. According to the device's specifications, iPhone 13 is equipped with an A15 Bionic chip, which Apple claims to be more powerful than the previous chip.
As mentioned, the camera specs are also the biggest change in the device as it now sports a three 12MP camera system for telephoto, wide, and ultra-wide cameras.

To further show how powerful its camera is, Apple commissioned the renowned South Korean director Park Chan-wook, who is also known for films such as "The Handmaiden" and "Oldboy," to create a short film using iPhone 13 Pro only.
Through the "Shot on iPhone" campaign, the short film titled "Life Is But A Dream" clearly shows how competitive the device is.
9to5Mac reported that the 21-minute short film is a story of a funeral business owner who stole woods from an abandoned grave in order to build a coffin for the fallen savior of his village. Upon digging up the grave, the undertaker unexpectedly awakened the ghost of an ancient swordsman, who did not want to give up his grave.
As of writing, the film has accumulated more than 36,000 views with over 2,500 likes.
Apart from "Life Is But A Dream," the tech giant also released a 3-minute behind-the-scenes footage of the production. The Cinematic Mode, which is one of the primary features of the iPhone 13 series, was heavily utilized in the production of the film.
To emphasize, the said feature improves the ability to record video in low light circumstances.
On the other hand, Apple Insider also added that the company also published a short video titled "The Comeback" in January to mark the Chinese New Year.
For those curious about its synopsis, the film shows a young man who returns home from a film production after suffering an injury. With the help of his father, he decided to make a comeback by shooting a science fiction film with his friends and family.
